Pros: Versatile and feature-packed.
Cons: Overheats sometimes.

Pros: 3-D Acc. for games, neeto speakers. Brilliant Display
Cons: 1-800-RETARD service...expect no help

For fifteen hundred dollars, I thought the laptop market was looking mighty inviting. I purchased my Presario XL 110 and quickly exploited every aspect the machine has to offer. The pro-audio speakers were always hard at work pumping out music and...

Pros: Portable power at your fingertips
Cons: it's heavy

What can I say but good things about the Compaq Presario 1200-X110 laptop computer. I looked carefully for a quality laptop computer before I made my purchase and I’m glad I did. Not only did I get a good deal on the computer but I learned some...

Pros: Price, Cute features
Cons: errors, problems, bad tech support

Although the quality of the Presario 1200 is not bad, I will never buy another Compaq computer again.

Here are the...

Pros: easy to use, adequate memory for a notebook
Cons: none really except you wish it was a bit faster

When I decided to purchase a computer I knew it would have to be a laptop as my apartment simply does not have the room for a full size computer. I admit right here I am somewhat computer illiterate and so I had to do some research before...

Pros: See above; too many to list!
Cons: None so far!

I begged and begged for a laptop and I finally got one. We went through all the big name makers looking for the best price and features. This notebook has both. I love it. I has so many features, yet i can take it anywhere.

This notebook had...

Pros: Relatively cheap, portable, Reliable computer
Cons: Sometimes freezes

Needing a computer for college, I was torn between going for the bigger and "better" desktop or the much more mobile laptop computer. I was originally going to get the desktop, but after I saw the price and the options on the Compaq1200, I...

Pros: Great laptop for most uses
Cons: Not to be used for 3D gaming/applications, unless willing to upgrade

Many people I have talked to always seem to look down on AMD K6 processors, but as a proud owner of one, I beg to differ. Not only are AMD's processors cheaper, in most magazine articles I have read, the AMD products always seem to just edge the...

Pros: fast easy
Cons: little heavy

Pros: Great electronics
Cons: Compaq needs to work on their support

The laptop is tops in electronics for the price. It was a joy for the first month or two. Compaq did not and will not provide a restore CD-ROM. So if you ever, as in my case, have a problem with Compaq's programs on drive D the computer can not be...
